1953 HITS ARCHIVE: She Wears Red Feathers - Guy Mitchell (a #1 UK hit)
She Wears Red Feathers (Merrill) by Guy Mitchell, orchestra & chorus conducted by Mitch Miller
The prolific song-hit factory known as Bob Merrill gave these lyrics a London setting, which probably contributed to this single’s rise to #1 on the UK record charts. In the U.S. it reached #14 (Cash Box), a number that Mitchell wouldn’t achieve again until his 1956 chart-topper “Singing The Blues.â€
